Cimentol

OUR HISTORY

The CIMENTOL brand is over 120 years old...

At the end of the 1890's, CIMENTOL'S famous damp-proofing "CIMENTOL C HYDROFUGE" was approved by the Paris hospitals (Hopitaux de Paris). Thanks to its innovate formula with a cement base (ciment in french), damp could be blocked and our brand name CIMENTOL was born.

It was in 1970 that the company, based in Aulnay sous bois (to the north-west of Paris), became a family concern, one which has not stopped developing its product ranges and distribution network ever since, thanks to the quality of its products, its strenght in innovation, excellent service and most especially a team of professionals ready to help you.

Based for 30 years in Seine Saint Denis, CIMENTOL has centered production in Houdan (60km to the west of Paris) since 2008, where the company has invested in a new modern industrial site, which has enabled us to greatly increase our production capacity, launch new product lines (coatings and strippers) and most importantly to adapt to new environmental standards put in place to help protect future generations. In 2011, CIMENTOL obtained its production ECOLABEL.

OUR EXPERTISE

Innovation and respect of the environment are our daily concerns. We have been developing innovative water based product ranges in response to professionals' requirements. Our entire product range has been developed in our own design office, and everything in our catalogue is manufactured in Houdan, so we are able to manage product quality and product formulas.

We make all types of paints and derivatives based on acrylic resins (styrene, vinyl, pure acrylic, polyurethane and polyester). In 2014, we launched organically sourced, plant-based paints, and new organic surface strippers in 2015.

OUR FACTORY

In 2008, CIMENTOL invested in a new 4200 m² facility in the Yvelines, to the west of Paris. This modern, environmentally sound factory has enabled us to increase our production capacity to more than 4000 tons per year. With a modern and flexible production system (50kg to 7000kg batches), numerous packing lines (from 0.25L to 1000L tins), and a large stock of raw materials (500 tons of resin), we can respect even the most demanding requirements in terms of volume, speed of production and our product offer.
